“May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.”


"This report is maybe 12-years-old. Parliament buried it, and it stayed buried till River dug it up. This is what they feared she knew. And they were right to fear because there's a whole universe of folk who are gonna know it, too. They're gonna see it. Somebody has to speak for these people. You all got on this boat for different reasons, but you all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. Sure as I know anything I know this, they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, 10, they'll swing back to the belief that they can make people . . . better. And I do not hold to that. So no more running. I aim to misbehave." ~ Captain Malcom Reynolds

That time of year...

Halloween is pretty much my favorite holiday. Just something about it I've always enjoyed, particularly the stories, spooky elements and all that stuff. Every year right about this time I like seeing the different decorations cropping up and that chill in the foggy fall air...

Well, the other night let me know the season was starting a bit early for me. Point in fact:





Yes boys and girls, that is a bat.

The poor thing flew right into my windshield at 3am, breaking his neck and making me a bit jumpy for a moment wondering what had happened. Then I pulled over, made sure he was dead as opposed to needing just a few moments to recover, and shook my head wondering at it all...

Hopefully that's the scariest thing that takes place when I'm working this Halloween season!
